Join us for the next great presentation from State Engineer General Counsel Nat Chakeres about the Middle Rio Grande’s unrecognized water crisis. The Office of the State Engineer’s actions are needed to keep New Mexico out of another Texas lawsuit focused on the Middle Rio Grande, the river segment between the Los Alamos highway bridge and Elephant Butte. Don’t miss State Engineer General Counsel’s presentation, Carrots and Sticks for Achieving Rio Grande Compact Compliance, Part II.
Without funding, New Mexico will remain in emergency mode—reacting to shortages, assuming the enormous risk and costs that a compact violation unleashes, and defending against new Texas litigation—instead of preventing or managing to mitigate them.
